Eric the racism, segregation and discrimination is in the air. Is in everywhere, any country. As species we are too territorial. Someone in your family or in my family is telling us every day every minute to hate every person that has strange colors in the whole world. Isn’t just white and black. I’m a black male but my family was middle class long ago so we were well educated. My family lived among white neighborhoods and I remember my father telling me “ don’t meet people from the low lying life area and also the whites. So the problem cross from father to son. Luckily for me I broke the chain but causing a lot damage in the family prides. I married with a white woman and I have 2 children but my father never likes her and my daughter. My father died and never asked for his niece. She’s 23 right now . Peace

Fun Fact: The song is about the ebony (black) and ivory (white) keys on a piano, but also deals with integration and racial harmony. The title was inspired by McCartney hearing Spike Milligan say, "Black notes, white notes, and you need to play the two to make harmony, folks!"

@@kickpublishing Incorrect. They recorded it together during sessions from Feb 27 to March 2, 1981 at George Martin's studio in Montserrat. (Paul later did some overdubbing on the song). Why would you pass off incorrect information as a "fun fact?" It was not "tacit support for racial apartheid" and in fact was banned in South Africa.

Conheci essa música recentemente através de um amigo chamado Humberto. Ele é branco, eu sou negro. Achei a melodia muito boa e a letra, sem comentários. Bastante profunda. Se nos atentarmos a mensagem que a letra carrega, veremos que não se resume basicamente às teclas pretas e brancas de um teclado, que por sinal, está sendo tocado por Stevie e Paul. As teclas juntas produzem essa melodia harmônica. No entanto, ébano e marfim, é uma letra que faz apologia à igualdade e integração racial. Uma clamação a vivermos de forma harmônica. Sobretudo um convite a problematizar questões/ aspectos intrínsecos em nossa sociedade, a exemplo o racismo. O ébano é tão precioso quanto o marfim.

It's nothing to do with colour and everything to do with culture.

[@missnprice23]

​@@iminyourhead9936 It has nothing to do with culture, and everything to do the ⚫️ & ⚪️ keys on a "piano keyboard" 🎹, how they "live together in perfect harmony side-by-side," and the question of "why don't we," as ppl, do the same thing.

I was kid living down in Phoenix,in the second grade when this classic came out. My father never had the record or tape,but I use to hear it on the car radio a lot. Great fond memories.

Eu vivi os momentos áureos de um ser humano nessa década de 80, entre os 15 e os 24 anos. Eu sou testemunha viva do quanto aquela década produziu belíssimas músicas. Já hoje, só vemos merda, Anita, Pablo Vitar e um monte de porcaria estrangeira. Estamos fu...Fu.

And what a great song that is sung by two of the greatest men in music!! It will be a very sad day when we lose these two gentlemen. I couldn’t remember this song At a very Nice jazz club I used to go to back and 82.‘ Lee Rittenour, Peabo Bryson, just to name a few we’re all staples at this club and it was wonderful. How I missed those days!

[@jennywren9068]

My first acquaintance with with Paul McCartney when hearing this song in 1982 on my friend’s record player. Been a huge fan ever since. I love Stevie Wonder too.

Como uma música pode trazer uma paz tão grande pra minha alma???????

[@ARTHUR_DE_JESUS_PEIXOTO_ARAUJO]

De fato

[@rafaa151]

Isso sim que é música. Melodia, arranjo perfeitos, e letra perfeita. Só poderia vir de dois gênios da música como são. Algumas pessoas (muitas) deveriam ouvir essa música umas 1000 vezes antes de fazerem os discursos mequetrefes que andam fazendo ultimamente. Isso sim é ser contra o racismo, não ficar discriminando as pessoas e segregando como os "anti-racistas" gostam de fazer.

[@kelleypendergraft2873]

I love this song. Just listen to the lyrics of this song. They're such beautiful lyrics. Although I hadn't listened to this song in a great while, I started crying. Just like the question of "Why can't we all just get along?"...the keys on either a synthesizer or a piano. They get along just fine, but not people of color. We're not that different. We bleed the same color.

[@karlgreat1661]

Hello 👋🏼 Kelley Pendergraft

[@MorusAlba1975]

IQ differences and all kinds of resentment (over slavery, Apartheid, the Holocaust, the Crusades etc.) make the situation way more complex than the keys on a piano or the color of our blood. At some point people are going to separate again because this 1982 dream is never going to come true. It's been a disaster and things only got worse, all the way up to the present day.

[@fulviaaydee1123]

Esta canción me encanta. Me remite a mi juventud en que había bellísimas canciones y ésta no es excepción, hablando sobre igualdad, paz, harmonía y alegría...Oh, qué tiempos tan hermosos aquellos!!!

@@Luvie1980 my thoughts exactly. There are spiritual and physical debts, from Minneapolis to the Middle Passage, for which reckoning and atonement must be rendered. It's not revenge, it's justice.

I’m just gonna leave this right here for you to ponder on. I hope you would at least do the right thing and at least try to prove me wrong. National Academy Of Sciences conducted yet another study, where they concluded that for the year 2019: 9 unarmed black people were shot & killed by Police 19 unarmed white people shot and killed by the Police

[@angelreve909]

Totaly agree!

[@joshuahek4564]

Yes we do. I don't want to not see color. I want a world where we all recognize different cultures and colors, and embrace them. We don't need to all be the same, that would be boring. I want Indian food, I want Ethiopian food, I want greasy spoon white guy diner food, I want Mexican food, I want authentic Chinese food, I want sushi. The same goes for music. Variety is the spice of life. I don't want all of us to be the same, I just want all of us to be equal. If you want everyone to assimilate to one culture, you are missing out on so much awesomeness that other people can offer you. We are all different, but we are all the same. One love.
